Chapter Four

They both froze before Arrow realized what I had said.

“What? No, you can’t leave the pack!” Exclaimed Arrow as he jumped up almost falling out of his chair.

“And why can’t I?” I could imagine the smug look on my face as I crossed my arms over my chest.

“Because your ours,” he said before Arion could stop him.

“Excuse me? I’m your what? Your person to make fun of? The wolf you get to laugh at with your girlfriends. Or wait! I know, I’m the girl you get to call names and throw food at, right?” I could feel the tears stinging my eyes.

“You are not any of those things,” Arion whispered.

“Yeah, you’re ours, our hot, sexy mate!” Arrow said.

“Arrow!” Arion scolded.

I just sat there with my mouth hanging open. I did not just hear that! What kind of a fool did they take me for? I could feel my face heating up with anger. “How dare you!” I yelled at them. “You mosey on in here telling my mother that you care about me and want to make sure I am ok, then you tell her you followed me into the woods to make sure I didn’t get hurt? Are you kidding me? I wasn’t born yesterday!” I could feel my eyes welling up with tears. I couldn’t believe they would go this far to make fun of me! What had I ever done besides be born?

The twins looked like I had just slapped them. I could see the hurt in their eyes as I felt the guilt creeping up inside me.

“We will go. We didn’t mean to upset you.” Arion said as they both got up. They headed towards the door. I didn’t care. I wouldn’t be the brunt of their jokes anymore.

I sat there for a minute watching them leave. I don’t know why but to my shock, I called out to them. “Wait!” I tried to stop myself. It was too late; they had heard me.

“Aww, I knew you didn’t want us to leave!” Arrow said flashing me his ‘I told you so smile.’

“You do like us!” Arion exclaimed as he followed his brother back into my room.

I rolled my eyes at them. “Why did you say I am your mate?” I asked Arrow.

“Because you are our mate. We will be Eighteen in a little less than two months. Because we are Alphas, we can sense our mate sooner than other wolves,” Arrow said.

“Yup. It’s true!” Arion chimed in.

“If that’s true, how come I can’t tell you guys are my mates?” I was still suffering a concussion so maybe that was the issue?

“It’s because you are not an Alpha, you are a Luna, but your birthday is still three months away, you won’t be able to completely sense us for a while.” Arion was watching my expression.

“Has anyone ever told you, you smell like apples and cinnamon, it’s my favorite,” Arrow said before leaning in to sniff me.

“Mine too,” Arion said as he picked up my hand and rubbed it against his cheek.

I could feel faint sparks as Arion rubbed my hand along his cheek, I knew what that could mean but if we were mates, wouldn’t I feel it more? I couldn’t help my feelings; I am so confused. What the hell happened to me? When I fell, did I die? Ok wait, I’ve got it, I am in a coma, yup. That’s it. I am in a coma, all of this because I am in a coma.

“Do you feel the sparks?” Arion asked, a funny look on his face.

“A little but if we are mates, wouldn’t I feel it more?” I asked looking between them.

“You will, as it gets closer to your birthday, you will feel them more and more,” Arion explained as he brought my palm to his lips kissing it.

I instinctively pulled away. He let me take my hand back before flashing me a knowing grin. I felt my core heat up a bit, his smile is sexy.

Arrow looked at me, licking his lips. “I think you smell divine.” He leaned closer taking a deep breath.

Arion leaned in more, “I think someone likes our attention.” He inhaled deeply, “Yup, she does.”

I shivered as his breath flowed across my marking spot. No, no, no, this is embarrassing. They can smell my arousal.

Arion licked my marking spot without warning, and I moaned. I covered my mouth with both hands. Arion’s eyes flashed black then back to normal.

“Don’t be embarrassed little mate, I like the way you moan, and the way you smell,” he whispered provocatively.

The bed dipped as Arrow sat on the edge. He leaned into me; I think you want us. He lay his head on my abdomen, “baby, you are making me hard,” his voice filled with lust.

Arion sat down on the other side of me, “I think you like our attention a lot,” he leaned in kissing my cheek. He let his face slowly go to the place where my shoulder and neck meet, I would carry my mate’s mark there. He ran his tongue along the curve. I grabbed his head holding it against my neck, he began sucking on my spot while Arrow gently reached under my hospital gown, I moaned louder when he pinched my nipple between his thumb and finger.

“That’s right, baby, moan for us, show us you want us.” Arion’s voice was barely audible.

“Stop, stop. I, I can’t do this. I am saving myself for my mate. I’m sorry.” They both stopped, taking their hands from my body.

“Babe, we are your mates.” Arrow looked into my eyes as though trying to pass the information into my brain.

I wanted to cry, everything felt out of control. First, Darren cheated on me, then I hit my head again and wound up in the hospital, now, I let the Hell Twins feel me up. I couldn’t understand how I had lost control of my own life so fast.

I put my head in my hands, I needed to think. Could I really believe they are my mates? What if it’s just some secret ploy to make fun of me some more. I sat up, when I opened my eyes, they were watching me with understanding eyes.

“Look, I know we haven’t been nice, we were assholes. I am sorry Rina, I really am. Please, give me the chance to make up for it, to show you I can be a good mate,” Arion sounded so sincere, that I could almost feel it.

“Please Rina, give us a chance. I know how mean we were but please, we always liked you.” Arrow looked equally sincere. “Haven’t you noticed us showing up all around you lately?” Arrow looked at me then at his brother.

“Yeah, and the way we have been looking at you? We have been trying to approach you, we have always had a crush on you.” Arion tried explaining, “We always thought you were unobtainable. You have always been so strong and tough; you don’t take shit from anyone. We thought that meant you would turn us down.”  Arion’s face looked like he was remembering.

I could feel they were telling me the truth; I knew they wouldn’t sound that sincere if it wasn’t true. I put my hand in my palm, how could I be their mates. Oh Goddess, what are Sheila and Jackie going to do to me? They are going to kill me!

“Babe, what’s wrong,” Arrow asked looking around the room. “I can feel you are worried. Don’t worry, nobody will mess with you.” He looked like he meant every word.

“I have an idea, if you guys can sense me, does that mean you have your wolves, so you can shift?” I watched their faces for any sign of deceit.

“Yeah, we shifted the night before the party,” Arion looked excited.

“So, you can both shift now, right?”

“Yeah, but if we shift, it means we will be naked, I’ll do it!” Arrow exclaimed, a mischievous grin on his face.

He stood up sliding his pants down, his member is huge! He smiled when he noticed me looking at it. He stood before me naked, his clothes thrown on the end of my bed.

I cringed as his bones began to break and change, his eyes turned black, and fur sprouted from his body. I watched as a beautiful silver and black wolf stood before me where Arrow had stood moments before. He looked at me, I held out my hand to him. He came to me, his nose was cold and wet, and it made me giggle. Without warning, he jumped up onto the bed. He licked my face before going to my marking spot, he licked it and let his teeth graze my skin. Arion stuck his hand over his brother’s snout.

“No, you cannot mark her yet., She isn’t ready.” His eyes flashed black as he stared at his brother.

Arrow whimpered before lying down on my lap. He is a huge wolf; his weight was hard for me to support. After a few minutes of me petting his head, he jumped down, I watched as the wolf once again became Arrow. He smiled at me, “do you believe us now? I know you felt my wolf wanting to mark you. I had trouble holding him back, he just kept yelling “mate! I know you felt that.” He smiled a knowing smile.

I did feel it when his wolf was trying to mark me, it felt like he was supposed to. I knew at that moment they were telling the truth, but I wanted to be eighteen so I could feel it the way I am supposed to. “I am starting to believe you, but I want to wait till I turn eighteen too. I want to be able to feel it and know it's you guys. I hope you will understand.” I looked between them. It wasn’t that long until I would be eighteen.

The Hell Twins looked at each other before answering at the same time,

“Yes, we can do that,” they both said.

The sound of their voices sounded heavenly to me, but I was not going to admit that. “I am not moving into the pack house with you right away either. Since I am not eighteen yet, I am going to stay at home with my mother until my eighteenth birthday. You guys can visit me there.” I could feel the weight of their stares. I knew this would be hard for them but if I am really their mate, they will have to wait for me.
